Rooftop Bar & Eatery banner

Hidden away on the rooftop of the historic Hope Gibbons building, this bar has breath-taking views down Courtenay Place to Mount Victoria and out over Wellington harbour. The pop-up bar and eatery, named “Dirty Little Secret”, consists of a series of shipping containers and pre-fabricated shelters that were craned into place. Wide tiered seating built up to appreciate the view and take advantage of the sun, together with beanbags and barbequed food, creates a popular new summer spot on the Wellington social scene.

About the
Professional

Tennent Brown is concerned with people, how our buildings and environments will affect their experience. We design to uplift the quality of life, of work, play and wellbeing of those the buildings serve. Architecture is built around people, and every design is an individual's or organisation’s story: their hopes and aspirations for a building that is their own.

People entrust us with realising some expression of themselves, to translate that into built form. We take that seriously. Ours is an architecture of listening and understanding: a humanist architecture.
